Throughout the movie Frozen, Princess Anna of Arendelle continuously seeks intimacy with other people, starting when her older sister, Elsa, began to isolate from Anna in order to protect Anna from Elsa’s dangerous ice abilities. First, when Anna was young, she repeatedly pestered Elsa to come out of her room to play with Anna. After years of rejection, Anna stopped trying to convince Elsa to come out of Elsa’s room until her parents die in a deadly storm on the sea. Even to that extreme, Elsa would not come out of her room. Then, on Elsa’s coronation day, Anna begins to sing about how she will experience many things for the first time, like falling in love. Late in the day of Elsa’s coronation, Anna becomes engaged to Prince Hans of the Southern Isles, whom she met that day. Another instance is when Anna tries to find her sister after Elsa reveals her special ice powers to the entire kingdom. Anna runs into Kristoff, an ice harvester, and together they find Elsa. Eventually at the end of the film, Anna has fallen in love with Kristoff, after knowing him for only two days, and breaks off the engagement with Prince Hans (Buck). However, why is it that Princess Anna sought romantic love in Prince Hans and Kristoff so easily? One …show more content…

Although it is not clearly shown in the film that Princess Anna read stories, it is assumed because a library comes up in one of the scenes. Because she is a princess, she saw these stories true and believed she had to live like that because of her title. Choosing what she believed help her to grow as a person in order to become an adult (Wilson). This is also proven when she is singing about meeting her perfect match. Princess Anna had a very high expectation of what it would be like to meet her “true love” at first sight. The only reasonable way Princess Anna, and many other young girls, could have expectations of love is through fictional

    David Guterson's novel, Snow Falling on Cedars, is one that covers a number of important aspects in life, including some controversial topics like racism and the Japanese internment during America's involvement in the Second World War. It speaks to this reader on a more immediate and personal level, however, through the playing out of Ishmael and Hatsue's relationship-one which Hatsue seems to be able to walk away from, but which shapes the way Ishmael tries to "live" his life because he cannot let go of the past, or a future that is not, and was not meant to be.

  • In Search Of True Love In Disney's Enchanted

    1481 Words  | 3 Pages

    Movies produced by Disney are some of the highest grossing movies on the planet, and for a good reason. The characters are well developed, musical numbers are choreographed to a tee, and the animations (when there are any) are vibrant and realistic. Enchanted, released in 2007 (The Internet Movie Database), is no exception. What sets Enchanted apart from other princess movies of the genre, though, is the juxtaposition between Giselle, the fair maiden, and the “real world” she becomes immersed in, courtesy of the Evil Stepmother. Enchanted defies the “Disney princess” norms set by the industry by setting the film in the very-real New York City as opposed to a fictitious fairy-tale land.

  • Implausible Love in Midsummer Night’s Dream

    1306 Words  | 3 Pages

    Love is chaotic and free, and because love is so powerful, we often do extreme and erratic things to capture it. The tradition of marriage, or mawage, is so firmly established in history that the gender roles common to marriage are often inescapable, no matter how strong love is, or how powerful a person is. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, William Shakespeare uses imagery to portray the theme of gender roles and show how love has the spell-bounding power to either change or reinforce those roles.

  • Midsummer Night’s Dream: The Power of Love

    Love is a powerful emotion, capable of turning reasonable people into fools. Out of love, ridiculous emotions arise, like jealousy and desperation. Love can shield us from the truth, narrowing a perspective to solely what the lover wants to see. Though beautiful and inspiring when requited, a love unreturned can be devastating and maddening. In his play, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, William Shakespeare comically explores the flaws and suffering of lovers. Four young Athenians: Demetrius, Lysander, Hermia, and Helena, are confronted by love’s challenge, one that becomes increasingly difficult with the interference of the fairy world. Through specific word choice and word order, a struggle between lovers is revealed throughout the play. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Shakespeare uses descriptive diction to emphasize the impact love has on reality and one’s own rationality, and how society’s desperate pursuit to find love can turn even strong individuals into fools.

    Anne says to Diana: “Oh, Diana, will you promise faithfully never to forget me, the friend of your youth, no matter what dearer friends may caress thee?” (183). And after Diana tells Anne she loves her Anne exclaims: “I thought you liked me of course, but I never hoped you loved me. Why, Diana, I didn’t think anybody could love me. Nobody has ever loved me since I can remember” (183). Anne taste for the dramatic helps her to impersonate the relationships she has dreamed about or the books she has read. It could be assumed that they learned this behavior from older girls in school or from many of the romance novels Anne enjoyed reading. In this instance, it seems to mimic the romance novels of fateful farewells and broken hearts. Though, realistically, they both know that they will see each other again. While Anne and Diana’s actions aren’t sexual, they are reminiscent of a romantic relationship. Later, Anne tells Marilla: “I used the most pathetic language I could think of and said ‘thou’ and ‘thee’. ‘Thou’ and ‘thee’ seems so much more romantic than ‘you’. Diana gave me a lock of her hair and I’m going to sew it up in a little bag and wear it around my neck all my life. Please see that it is buried with me, for I don’t believe I’ll live very long” (184). Such fantastical, romantic relationships would have been considered improper with a boy during this time in their life. However, because they were with another young, female they were considered “play” and become a safe way for them to live out their dreams about their

    Anna plays the role of the classic submissive female married to David's classic chauvinist male. "Wanting to remain attractive to her husband, Anna attempts to conform to the eroticized and commodified images of women promulgated in the mass culture" (Bouson 44). Although the novel is set during the 1970"s, the decade of one of the great feminist movements in our history, Anna remains a woman who maintains herself for her husbands benefit. In a critical scene in the novel, the narrator sees Anna applying makeup. When she (the narrator) tells her that it is unnecessary where they are Anna says "He doesn't like to see me without it," and then quickly adds, "He doesn't know I wear it" (41).

    She goes on to tell her mom about a dream she had and how her prince would take her away and care for her forever. She says, “Prince Charming rules life for us now” (Page 64). Her mother gives her a hard time and tells her that she is a foolish child. Sibyl laughs and really doesn’t care about the reality of the situation because she is in love and that is all that matters to her. She is living life like she is on stage and rehearsing for the marriage scene. Sibyl really thinks she loves Dorian and tells her mom, “I love him because he is like what Love himself should be” (Page 65). Sibyl’s mom reminds her daughter that she doesn’t even know his real name, but Sibyl is very naïve and innocent and although she knows very little about who Dorian really is, she doesn’t really care. She knows he is rich and she knows he is beautiful and she is hopeful that he can save her and care for her. These fantasy-based ideas are obviously not founded on real
